R/V Quackenbush

R/V Quackenbush

The R/V Quackenbush, named for Dr. Quackenbush, is a 32' Catamaran powered by twin outboards. With a shallow draft, ample open deck space, and the stability of a catamaran hull, the R/V Quackenbush is an ideal platform for conducting classes and research in the shallow waters of Biscayne Bay. Based on the Biscayne Bay Campus, a variety of habitats can be reached within minutes from our dock.
